Marine Biology Courses, Safaris and Workshops

Whether you are a young person considering a career in marine biology, or a nature enthusiast who'd just like to know more about Ireland's fascinating marine wildlife, we have a workshop for you.

We also provide private lectures and marine biology classes to interest groups in Ireland, eg. diving clubs, sailing clubs etc., as well as workshops and training for primary school teachers interested in including marine biology as part of the SESE curriculum. Please get in touch if you are interested in an educational event for your own organisation or group.
